AWS SDK extension for OpenTelemetry

Project description

pypi

This library provides components necessary to configure the OpenTelemetry SDK for tracing with AWS X-Ray.

Installation

pip install opentelemetry-sdk-extension-aws

Usage (AWS X-Ray IDs Generator)

Configure the OTel SDK TracerProvider with the provided custom IDs Generator to make spans compatible with the AWS X-Ray backend tracing service.

Install the OpenTelemetry SDK package.

pip install opentelemetry-sdk

Next, use the provided AwsXRayIdGenerator to initialize the TracerProvider.

import opentelemetry.trace as trace
from opentelemetry.sdk.extension.aws.trace import AwsXRayIdGenerator
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace import TracerProvider

trace.set_tracer_provider(
    TracerProvider(id_generator=AwsXRayIdGenerator())
)

Usage (AWS Resource Detectors)

Use the provided Resource Detectors to automatically populate attributes under the resource namespace of each generated span.

For example, if tracing with OpenTelemetry on an AWS EC2 instance, you can automatically populate resource attributes by creating a TraceProvider using the AwsEc2ResourceDetector:

import opentelemetry.trace as trace
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace import TracerProvider
from opentelemetry.sdk.extension.aws.resource.ec2 import (
    AwsEc2ResourceDetector,
)
from opentelemetry.sdk.resources import get_aggregated_resources

trace.set_tracer_provider(
    TracerProvider(
        resource=get_aggregated_resources(
            [
                AwsEc2ResourceDetector(),
            ]
        ),
    )
)

Refer to each detectors’ docstring to determine any possible requirements for that detector.
